The role of business environment institutions in supporting foreign investors in the Lodz voivodeship

Summary/Abstract: The business environment institutions may influence the development of regions. They provide services that encourage establishing and developing enterprises. We have to deal with the correlation in two directions, the development of a region depends on the quality of business environment institutions, and business environment institutions are dependent on the level and dynamics of the growth in the region which determine demand for business support services. The main purpose of this article was to evaluate activities of business environment institutions aimed at attracting and keeping foreign direct investment (FDI) in the Lodz region. With limited organizational and financial possibilities of public administration, business environment institutions may play an important part in attracting and keeping FDI in the region. They may also act as a liaison between the local government and entrepreneurs as well as perform some tasks that are not, for different reasons, performed by public administration.
